I think that when everything is said and done, Rhodes will likely be gone in the first round, jumping over Mississippi State Jon Banks. Milliner will likely go to the Lions, and won't fall past the Titans. After that, Rhodes' combination of size and downfield speed and nastiness is going to be hard to pass on for a team like the Bucs.

However, I think that both Banks and Amerson are potential studs at the #2 CB slot. Both long, big guys with a superb nose for the ball. Banks is one of the most fluid CB's I've seen in a long time at the college level, and Amerson has a ridiculous nose for the ball. He tried to do a little too much this season in attempting to match his junior year numbers and got burned for it a couple of times, but he's ridiculously talented.

Both are really good press coverage guys who play really long against the thrown ball. Both will come up hard in run support as well.

1. Geno Smith, QB, West Virginia
I wrote earlier that this pick largely depended on what would happen with Scott Pioli. If Pioli were retained, he'd draft Star Lotulelei or Luke Joeckel and then use his second-round pick on Mike Glennon, whom he likes. If Pioli were fired, however, as the awesome @saveourchiefs movement was pushing for, the new general manager would almost have to take a franchise quarterback.

Well, it was the latter situation that occurred. Andy Reid was hired, while Pioli was axed. New regimes mean new quarterbacks, but whether that means Reid will spend this selection on a quarterback or sign his aging, scrambling signal-caller from Philadelphia remains to be seen. But if history is any indication, Reid will use this pick on Geno Smith.

Reid eschewed all the top free-agent quarterbacks when he took over as the Eagles' head coach, taking a mobile, Big East product with a good deep ball and upside instead. Well, Smith is a mobile, (former) Big East product with a good deep ball and upside. He fits perfectly into Reid's offense.

ESPN and other outlets will tell you that Smith nor any other signal-caller is worth taking No. 1 overall, but that could easily change. Remember two years ago when ESPN was mocking Da'Quan Bowers and Nick Fairley to the Panthers? Well, Cam Newton ballooned to the top, as will some other quarterback this year. It could be Smith, Tyler Wilson, Matt Barkley or Glennon. We'll see. Four months is a long time. If this doesn't happen, the Chiefs could always trade down.

By the way, I'm doing this live because I thought it'd be fun to get instant feedback. I'm going to post my mock anyway, so why not do it this way? Follow @walterfootball for updates.

34. Justin Hunter, WR, Tennessee
Kansas City's new quarterback will need a new receiver if Dwayne Bowe leaves. I wouldn't spend the money on Bowe; he's overrated because he's inconsistent and piles up most of his stats in garbage time. He was responsible for a ton of turnovers, including both of Matt Cassel's interceptions against the Ravens.

63. William Gholston, DE/DT, Michigan State
Glenn Dorsey will be a free agent in March and Tyson Jackson is due more than $14 million next year, so it appears as though their disappointing tenures in Kansas City are coming to an end.

I'll update this when he finishes our 4th round pick.

01-16-2013, 12:34 PM

I think we should tag Albert and trade him to the Eagles for their 2nd. My dream scenario:

If we were really going to tag and trade Albert, we would have to get two firsts for him per the new cba. It's a longshot but, I think St. Louis is the team that would do it. They need a LT bad and they aren't going to get one with the 16th or 22nd picks. Also, KC would have to be dead set in taking Joeckel #1. The trade would have to happen before the draft imo.

1. Geno Smith
2. Tony Jefferson (we need another safety as bad as we need a CB, and there isn't a CB around this part of the draft as good as Jefferson. I also think we will bring in DRC)
3. Da'Rick Rogers
4. Kevin Reddick

Who would be the best available strong safety so that we could move Berry to free?

Don't know too much onKevin Reddick or Da'Rick Rodgers before as I have never seem them play. However, I'm loving the Geno Smith and Tony Jefferson picks for round one and two. If we did bring DRC, I would like this pick of Tony Jefferson. I'm still kinda hoping one of the good CB's will fall out of the first round.

Lester from Bama and Williams from Georgia are both good and project to go in the 3rd round. They are both thumpers. It's a pretty weak class for strong safeties. I would be suprised if one went in the first two rounds.

I would also be suprised if they move Berry. He's made the pro bowl as a SS both years he's played. I think the new staff won't screw with him as much as Romeo did last year. I think they'll let him just line up like a normal SS rather than blitz all the time and move all over the place. He plays the run better than any SS in the game imo.

We would be better served to take Rambo, FS, from Georgia in the second or third imo. He would be a first rounder if he hadn't gotten in trouble. He's a ball hawk and he can hit. Also, FS is much deeper than SS in this class.

Chris Meck

QB and a CB at 1 and 2 would certainly fill the biggest holes on the team. Sign a mid priced ILB to play thumper and a safety in FA and you've gone a long way towards winning.

ForeverChiefs58

We have a few holes and Hunt has the money. So, no need to make new holes that need to waste draft picks on. Sign Albert and Bowe.

If we can walk away from draft with upgrades at QB, CB, S, ILB, DE and Oline and WR depth = homerun.

Best case scenario is Matt Elam from Florida falling to the top of the 2nd. Partial to Jefferson from OU, similar type player as Berry, but he kind of faded towards the end of the season. Played poorly in the Cotton bowl. Looked slow, but he has been dealing with injuries. Interested to see him at the combine.

Honestly, think it might be better to address the back 7 thru FA and draft for depth. Anything to get Lewis and Brown off the field.

However, if Hunt is what everyone says he is or will be, if he were there in the second I'd think about taking him.

For nearly 10 years, Bruce Feldman, a writer for CBSSports.com, has annually compiled what he calls a "Freak List" of the 10 college football players he considers the most freakish athletes. In 2012, Hunt was on top of his list. According to Feldman, Hunt "sounds like a PlayStation football creation"ódespite his 82-inch (2.1 m) wingspan, he is able to bench press 225 pounds (102 kg) 35 times, and has also cleaned 384 pounds (174 kg) and snatched 345 pounds (156 kg). Hunt also boasts a 36-inch (91 cm) vertical jump. Wollman predicts that Hunt will have 45 repetitions and a 4.6-second 40-yard dash at the 2013 NFL combine

However, I'd much rather have a starting CB in the second and someone like Joe Kruger in the fourth/fifth. There is going to be a really good CB sitting there with that second round pick.

Kansas City Chiefs: Geno Smith, QB, West Virginia
Scott Pioli was fired, as the awesome @saveourchiefs movement was pushing for, and he's been replaced by Andy Reid and his staff. The question is whether Reid will take a shot on a quarterback or go the safe route with Luke Joeckel.

Chris Mortensen said Monday that he expects Joeckel to be the first pick in the 2013 NFL Draft, but has a feeling that Reid will select a quarterback - which means he expects him to trade down. I agree with Mort. I'm not sure about the moving down part - Kansas City will sure as hell try - but here's why Geno Smith will be the pick, barring any big acquisition in free agency:

1. New regimes mean new quarterbacks, and if history is any indication, Reid will use this pick on Smith. Reid eschewed all the top free-agent quarterbacks when he took over as the Eagles' head coach, taking a mobile, Big East product with a good deep ball and upside instead.

Anthony Gargano of 94 WIP in Philadelphia revealed that he spoke to a general manager who told him that he would draft Smith with the first-overall selection. This is just one general manager, but if one GM wants Smith that badly, then there's a chance that several do. Smith has a ton of upside, so a quarterback-friendly coach like Reid might think he could coach him up to a Pro Bowl level.

4. My Chiefs' source, who has a high success rate of delivering Kansas City's first-round picks, told me Smith is currently the favorite to go No. 1 overall, but conceded that it's still too early in the process. He said that the combination of Joeckel and Tyler Wilson is also a strong possibility.

Georgia outside linebacker Jarvis Jones had been one of the most dominant football players in college football the past two seasons. He's destroyed the SEC for those two years, as many consider him to be one of the most talented players in the 2013 NFL Draft class. Jones is on top of my 2013 NFL Draft Big Board, as well as ESPN's Mel Kiper's.

However, after speaking with scouts at the East-West Shrine Game who have Jones in their territory, they say they expect Jones to slide down and fall out of the top five next April.

The scouts said there are a few reasons that could add up to Jones falling into the 6-10 range. First of all, the scouts said that Jones is not a good workout guy. They don't believe that he is going to test well or stand out in the Combine or pre-draft workouts. Area scouts who cover Georgia say that Jones is not a weight-room guy. He doesn't put a lot of work in during the week, but would show up on Saturday and dominate naturally.

They said that Jones is a good guy and a good teammate, but just isn't a tireless worker. As one scout said, "Don't get me wrong, if you watch his tapes you'll say he is worth being the No. 1 rated player and going in the top five of the draft. You can watch him on Saturdays and see that this guy is animal. He's clearly the best player on the field, but not a guy that you'll be in love with during the week. Add in the medical concern and with the testing, and I think he's going to slide some on Draft Day."

Jones' medical condition is a spinal stenosis that happened as a freshman at USC. On a routine hit against Oregon, Jones sustained the injury. A specialist told him he would be fine, but USC's doctors wouldn't clear him and told him he should retire from football. After transferring to Georgia, Jones broke out as one of the best players in college football.

As a junior, Jones had 85 tackles, 14.5 sacks, 24.5 tackles for a loss, seven forced fumbles, three passes broken up and one interception in 2012. Jones had massive performances against Florida and Missouri with consistently good outings all year. Jones led the nation in sacks and for the second straight season had the most sacks in the SEC.

In 2011, he tied for the second-most sacks in the nation, 13.5. He also had 70 tackles with 19.5 tackles for a loss and two forced fumbles.

Jones could be a classic example of teams overthinking the draft process. Over the history of the draft, good players have slid because of an unnecessary medical concerns or not working out well at the Combine. If Jones plays in the NFL like he did at Georgia, he'll reward whomever takes him on Draft Day with plenty of teams feeling regret.

All in the top 10 right behind us who could draft a QB if some dumbass team in front of them decides to pass on the biggest need in the NFL.

Well the premise that makes them say trade down in the first place is that they don't respect any of the QB options. Hell, by saying trade down they are looking at QB desperate team like KC and not giving them the QB at their spot. Not surprising they they expect QBs to slip by these other teams. They don't respect these prospects and they don't seem to get how much teams want QBs in a league that demands you have a QB.

I'm not giving up picks for him when we have Houston and Tamba. Jones doesn't fit in our defense with them here and Tamba surely has at least 3 more productive years.

Well the premise that makes them say trade down in the first place is that they don't respect any of the QB options. Hell, by saying trade down they are looking at QB desperate team like KC and not giving them the QB at their spot. Not surprising they they expect QBs to slip by these other teams. They don't respect these prospects and they don't seem to get how much teams want QBs in a league that demands you have a QB.

No it's not even that, it's when they'll have teams right behind us draft a QB. They'll say Chiefs should trade down, with caption "because no QB is worth #1", then turn around and have a team right behind us in top 10 take a QB. An example is Ariz' caption "because they had the worst QB play and should fix QB problems"

All in the top 10 right behind us who could draft a QB if some dumbass team in front of them decides to pass on the biggest need in the NFL.

I wouldn't rule the eagles out at 4, either.

Basically, 8 of the first 9 picks should be quarterback shopping.

Yeah, I've read a few places that think Chip Kelly will be looking for "his guy" to fit the style of offense he wants. Makes it even more crazy people talking a trade down.

Chiefs haven't drafted a QB in 1st in 30 years, and have never had the first pick. Gee, I wonder what's missing from this franchise?

I am not extremely familiar with Jarvis Jones' condition. However, look at Da'Quan Bowers. No one wanted to touch him, he ended up going 51st. Even with missing time due to injury, he has (according to PFF) outplayed every 4-3 DE taken ahead of him: Robert Quinn, Adrian Clayborn, Cameron Jordan, and Jabaal Sheard.

DO you try and help arguably the worst OL in the NFL and hope for a QB later that will probably not be a good fit or do you take a QB and hope to build your OL later + FA.

I think the combine and pro days will allow him to showcase his tools and I think he's going to climb draft boards pretty quickly. I honestly wouldn't be shocked to see him go as the 2nd QB off the board.

The kid has serious talent. Probably more than anyone in the draft. He's raw as can be, but if you could untap his potential, he'd essentially be the good version of Dante Culpepper but with an actual work ethic.

If, for some reason KC trades out of the first pick, don't be surprised if Manuel is a Chief next year.

Bring in Alex Smith for a year or two to allow Reid to groom EJ.

I see the draft falling one of two ways: Either KC drafts Geno with the #1 pick, or it trades with the Eagles and takes either Manuel or Wilson.

One of those two guys will be there at #4.

I think when all is said and done, with the proper coaching Manuel will be the best QB in this class. Out of the gate, Geno has a pretty big lead on everyone, however.

I'm definitely willing to give Hudson another try at C for another year, but I don't want to turn this into another Rudy Niswanger nightmare, where we patiently wait for this great C prospect to "get it" for a few seasons until we realize he never will.

Hopefully Reid will be able to determine if he can do it or not. If not, then he needs to start playing guard ASAP and stay there.

Geno will do well at combine. I imagine he wont throw but he'll run and do the wonderlic and interviews. He'll do well. He loves to study game film and loves football. He'll test well and interview well. We'll take Geno number 1. I want Albert re-signed. He's a good LT he's good enough to win with. If his back checks out medically ofcourse. I would love to get ILB Danelle Ellerbe from the Ravens in free agency to seal our LB core. We need to get another corner opposite of Flowers and another safety. Free agency is where we can smartly fill some holes. If Denver cut Champ Bailey he'd be a good veteran addition to the team and defense. He'd add proven leadership which we need on the defense. We also need 2 DEs because Dorsey is a FA and Jackson will be cut due to his 14 million dollar cap number this year. I would like to add maybe a guy like Richard Seymour to the dline. I know hes up there in age but he can still be effective. Add him and a DE in the draft.

For the offense we need to re-sign Bowe, he's our best WR option. I believe Breaston will stay he can be good in the WCO under Reid. Would like to see us get a WR in rd 2 of the draft. Would love to get Greg Jennings because he'd be great along side Bowe. Baldwin sucks. but Jennings does get hurt and I dont know how much we'll spend in Free Agency. We need a good number 1 TE to go with Moeaki who could be a solid number 2. So my pick would be Titans TE Jared Cook. Ive watched him he can be really effective. I would like to add a veteran QB to help with Geno. The guy id pick is Alex Smith. Im not a big fan of his but when he had a true QB guru he did well enough and showed he can win in the postseason as he did 2 years ago against the Saints. With Reid, he'd be fairly successful until Geno develops.

Oh did he? I didn't know that thanks man. Just thought since Barkley wasn't he wasn't because he views himself as top QB

There's a post in the Barkley thread (http://www.chiefsplanet.com/BB/showthread.php?p=9393601#post9393601) where Barkley is cited as saying that he's doing everything at the combine. Good to hear that we're going to get a show from all of these QBs - the more we see of them, the better.

Barkley is SAYING that he's going to throw and run at the combine.

There's also a TON of rumor out there that he won't be ready for his PRO DAY, let alone the combine...

Well, the fact that he's saying it is progress. He had repeatedly said in the past that what he would do at the combine would be a "game time decision". If that hasn't changed, why would he be telling people differently now?

all of these mocks totally ignore Reid's "shell" philosophy and how that fits with the personnel we have- you need tackles and a QB on offense, bookend pass rushers and corners on defense.

That's where you spend the money, and I think he's right, by the way. So what do we have?

In a 3-4, you're talking OLB's. We're set with Hali and Houston. You've got one plus corner, you need another.

On offense, if you re-sign Albert (easiest thing in the world to do) you're set as Winston is also a plus player (no matter what the manbabys want to say after he hurt their feelings).

You've got NO QUARTERBACK. This is a major problem. But by all means, mock a left tackle and a bunch of guards to us in the early rounds.

Was Sam Bradford healthy enough to have his pro day? I can't remember.

Yep. I remember the photos where he looked about 25-30lbs bigger then he did during the season.

Thought it was private workout after the Sooners pro day, because he wasn't ready for the Pro Day.

He phrased it as Sam Bradford's pro day, not OU's pro day so that is assuming what he meant.

FEB. 12 UPDATE: There's a new caveat, which is Philadelphia's restructuring of its mobile quarterback's contract. Nick Foles is now likely to be traded. Andy Reid used a second-day selection on him last year, so I don't see why he wouldn't do that again (he may only have to deal his fourth-rounder). If Reid acquires Foles, he'll draft Joeckel to protect him.

The mock was updated today/yesterday. It says this at the end now:

So basically we're gonna have to listen to the shit about Joeckel until right up to the point where the Chiefs say they're drafting Geno.

91. New England Patriots: Tyler Bray, QB, Tennessee
The Patriots have used a third-round pick on a troubled but talented SEC quarterback before. There's talk that Bill Belichick could trade Ryan Mallett to Michael Lombardi, so if that happens, New England may search for another project at the signal-caller position.

I always like how these mocks and other experts factor in what Reid will do but not what Dorsey will do. I don't take Dorsey as just some "figure head". Us signing Albert to LT money is going to make a lot of this change.
